Fermi'S Paradox      
                          
                                          
 On Earth  (The Planet Where  I  Live)  A 
 Lot  Of Us Have  Antennas  On Our Houses 
 Or  Balconies,   We  Have  Built   Large 
 Antennas  For  Larger  Bandwith, We Have 
     Build Specialized Antennaes For      
    Specific Wavelengths (And Sent Them   
 Into Orbit), We'Ve Built  Large As  Fuck 
              Antenna Arrays              
 We'Ve Virtually Built An Antenna With  A 
         Dish As Large As Earth.          
                                          
 We'Ve Learned About Our  Position In The 
     Solar System, Our Solar Systems      
 Placement  In  The   Galaxy,   And   Our 
 Galaxys Placement In  The Local Cluster, 
 And Our Local  Clusters Place  In  The 
          Grand Scheme Of Things          
                                          
 And  We'Re  Moving  Around  The  Sun  At 
 Velocity And The  Suns Moving Around The 
 Center Of  The Galaxy  At  Velocity  And 
 The Galaxy  Is  Moving  Toward Andromeda 
   And We'Re Both Moving Anticlockwise    
 Around The Galaxy. And We As  A  Species 
 Have Learned To Take All That In Account 
                                          
 And Despite  All This, Despite  All  Our 
    (Cliche) Beaming Of Fucking Stellar   
 Radio  Programmes  Out In  Fucking Space 
 At  The  Speed Of  Light  (Light Is  Our 
  Medium! Goodspeed You, Black Emperor!), 
      Despite Ghosts Helping And The      
     Collective Consciousness Lowpass     
   Filtering, Despite Our Very Obvious    
 Beaming  Of All  Our  Secrets  In  Every 
          Direction Known To Us,          
                                          
 No       One       Has       Answered

              So Why Is That?             
                                          
 Most Opponents  To Intelligent  Life  In 
 The Universe Say It'S Because  You  Need 
 A Class One-Or-The-Other  Star  And  The 
 Planet  Needs  To  Be  At  A  See-And-So 
 Distance Away From  The Star (Like There 
           Has To Be A Planet!)           
                                          
 But   Really   Isn'T  That  Keeping  The 
      Definition Of Life Really Lax?      
                                          
 I Think Everyone Agrees  That We Have No 
 Idea What We'Re Doing  (And It  Probably 
                  Shows)
